The amBer amuleT
craig Silvey
The Masked Avenger and his side-kick Richie patrol the
relatively quiet Franklin Street each night, protecting the
locals from deflated car tyres, faulty sprinklers and squeaky
gate hinges. Armed with an array of minerals and gemstones
that give him powers of truth, honesty, supersight and
strength, the Masked Avenger is well equipped to deal with
the challenges each night brings. What few know is that the
Masked Avenger is actually twelve-year-old Liam McKenzie,
and Richie is his faithful Power-beagle.
From the award-winning author of Jasper Jones, The
Amber Amulet is a touching, comical and beautiful read.
